Well i have found out the other day that I have gallstones. and the Gall Bladder is full of them.
For the last 2 years or so I have had these attacks that I couldn't explain, sever pain in my back and stomach. We didn't know what it was, first we thought gas because tums knocked it out the first time, then massaging my back helped for a while. These days it was lasting all night and through the day in this mind numbing pain you wanted to die.
We also thought it was a hernia because I could go to my chiropractor and she could (pull) my stomach out and I would feel better right away. It hadn't helped the last few times so I thought I was going to need surgery to fix it.
So come to find out it was gallstones all along.
I got a book from my MIL that's called "Are you "Stoned" " Very interesting reading to say the least. They have a treatment in there that you use a pint of olive oil and 1/2 pint of lemon juice that you can flush out the stones without surgery that I'm going to try tonight to see if i can't get these things out of me.
Has anyone ever heard of this treatment or have used it before? Does it hurt?
I do know that while I have been off of Honey's milk (which has been since Nov) I have had these attacks almost every weekend or fewer. Because I had them before I had Honey in milk i didn't think anything about it, but looking back while I was drinking her milk I didn't have one attack. DH even said something about it but we never thought about honey's milk was making me better. We thought that maybe since I was getting more exercise it was getting better.
Anyways Sorry I made such a long post but I thought I would share.
